Mar 2021

Felt fine until later that evening.

- Injection site felt sore
- Started feeling queasy
- Ache all over
- Lymph nodes swollen
- Bed at 11pm

- Woke up at 3am with the most intense case of shivers I've every had. Could hardly walk to the bath. Couldn't even hold my phone.
- Teeth chattering out loud.
- Took a long very hot shower and put on long sleeve pyjamas and pair of long cashmere hunting socks.
- Climbed back in bed and covered up with my welsh blanket

- Just awoke a bit ago with a tough migraine.

Other than that, all is well. I expect to feel tip-top in a day or so.

Ready for my second dose at the end of may.
